Goal

I am raising €4.500 to cover flights, accommodation, and Ayurvedic hospital treatment in Kerala, India, where I will undergo intensive therapies to help heal my chronic vestibular condition.

Story

My Journey So Far

On 23 July over two years ago, I woke up in Cork, Ireland, and the world was spinning. I couldn’t walk properly. After two hours of vomiting and terrifying dizziness, I called an ambulance and was taken to the hospital. Doctors diagnosed me with vestibular neuritis — a virus in my left inner ear that caused inflammation and knocked my balance and nervous system completely out of sync.

They told me I’d feel better in two weeks. But two weeks passed, and my world was still tilting. I began physiotherapy, neurological rehab exercises, but life had changed. At the time my two children were just 8 and 1 years old, and I could hardly care for them. My parents stepped in, and my partner took over most of the daily care and family planning.

Since then I have done everything I could in Austria to get better: hospital follow-ups, MRI scans, cranio-sacral therapy, massage, acupuncture, osteopathy, physiotherapy, and even a month at a neurological rehab centre.

Although my balance has improved slightly, I still live as if on a boat every day. My hearing is extremely sensitive, making loud environments overwhelming. My memory and reaction speed are not what they used to be. My confidence has suffered.

And yet — I remain hopeful. I still dream of the day I wake up feeling steady again.

Why I’m Going to India

Two friends I deeply trust recommended Poonthottam Ayurvedasram, an Ayurvedic hospital in Kerala, India, that specializes in holistic healing. Poonthottam offers traditional Ayurvedic treatments like Panchakarma detox, herbal medicine, therapeutic massage, diet plans, yoga, and meditation — all designed to restore balance in the nervous system and body.

This hospital is surrounded by nature, with its own herbal gardens and an experienced team of doctors (Vaidyas). They have helped many people with neurological and chronic illnesses that Western medicine often struggles to treat.

While I cannot know if it will completely cure me, I feel strongly that this is the next step in my healing journey — and maybe the one that will finally help me regain my balance and my life.
